D - the shortest distance from the ship to the shore.
d / ( 17 - x ) = tan 32° = 0.62487
d / x = tan 53° = 1.32704
d = 0.62487 ( 17 - x )
d = 1.32704 x
0.62487 ( 17 - x ) = 1.32704 x
10.62279 - 0.62487 x = 1.32704 x
x = 10.62279 : 1.95191
x = 5.44226 miles
d = 5.44226 · 1.32704
Answer:
d = 7.222 miles
Answer:
1 13/20
Step-by-step explanation:
5 1/2 ÷ 3 1/3
11/2 ÷ 10/3
11/2 x 3/10 = 33/20
33/20 = 1 13/20
Hope this helps :)
